Citroen's Sebastien Loeb was quickest on Shakedown for this weekend's Rally Norway. Loeb finished just ahead of young Finn, Jari-Matti Latvala.
Latvala was lucky to survive the day in one piece after on off-road excursion. He slid off the road on his second run through the short stage, but luckily suffered only minimal damage to his Ford Focus.
